What is Taiwan: A New History: A New History (East Gate Books) about?

<p>The history of Taiwan, a small island-state lying less than 100 miles off the coast of China whose world-class economy and geo-political position in Asia give it an importance that goes far beyond what a population of only 22.5 million would suggest, is little explored or understood in the West. This important book is the most integrated, comprehensive, and accessible history of Taiwan available. The contributors, distinguished leading experts from three continents, guide the reader through Taiwan's colorful history, from neolithic times to the present. The general reader, the student, and Asian-Americans who trace their roots back to Taiwan or China through Taiwan will find this book invaluable.</p> <h3>Booknews</h3> <p>Comprises 16 essays that explore Taiwan's development from its beginning as a political entity to the 50 years as the home of the Kuomintang-controlled Republic of China. Topics covered include: the politics of Taiwan Aboriginal origins; the island frontier of the Ch'ing; from treaty ports to provincial status; identity and social change in Taiwanese religion; Aboriginal self-government; and Taiwan's socioeconomic modernization.
